One shouldn't make snap judgements and flame away without thinking. You did
and it reflects badly on you. Not to mention you did what you said I SHOULD
NOT have done - posted something 'NETWORK WIDE' that should have been sent
through mail. Though I must admit you have brought some people out of the
woodwork. :-)

As to what/what not to discuss in a public forum such as this ... well what
exactly do you talk about when you and some friends get together ? My
friends and I talk/joke about money/marks/friends/computers/school/sex,
plus some state of the world type stuff. On the net, there are groups for 
money matters, computers and school; marks aren't of interest to those who
aren't competing for them (what ! you and your friends don't compete !?!?);
my friends I suspect wouldn't want to know you, and I'm sure from
your ('women reading this') comment you would not want to associate with
them :-); this leaves sex.

The net is a good place (aside from people who have problems with the
concept) to discuss stuff like this, because people can talk about this and
not be so embarassed, because it seems so ... impersonal. Kind of like
reading a book, except you can ask questions.

(If I had been joking I would have posted to rec.humor.)
